Adding wordpress Blog in a Rails application

I have Rails application deployed on my home root directory of a domain and symlinked with my public_html/applicationname.com/. I wanted to install wordpress in applicationname.com/blog path. But rails ain`t allowing me to do so. I have tried a subdomain as well, but still, the routes are being handled by Rails.

What would be the best solution to deploy a blog along with Rails application ?

I can only think of .htaccess modification.

If you are deploying your rails app using Passenger then you can disable Passenger for a particular location. See section 5.8 of the documentation, which has an example for WordPress.

You should put your blog into the rails' public directory.
That's the place for static files (and php ones are).
